Below is our complete Grey Skies Fallen news coverage, including columns and articles pertaining to the band. Some articles listed may be indirectly related, such as side projects of the band members, etc.

After the independent release of "The Many Sides Of Truth" LP in 2014, NYC-area epic death/doom act Grey Skies Fallen now declares several new releases in 2015, beginning with the official unearthing of two of the band's prior digital-only releases on physical format for the first time.

Grey Skies Fallen's fourth release, the four-song "Along Came Life" EP, was released in 2010, and recorded during tumultuous times for the band. This is the last recording with original member Joe D'Angelo on guitar, and sitting in on bass was Paul LaPlaca (October Thorns, Zandelle).

Two years later, the band released the three-song "Introspective" EP in 2012, and was recorded at a point when the group was technically a three-piece, featuring Dave Case (Helmet, Afterbirth) filling-in and providing bass tracks. This album includes the twenty-one minute title track, perhaps the most ambitious recording from the band to date.

Both recorded at Keith Moore at his Audio Playground in Patchogue, New York, together, these "lost EPs" fill in the long gap in between LPs, bridging 2006's "Two Way Mirror" and 2014's "The Many Sides of Truth," now available in one physical package. The band comments: More...

New York underground metal band Grey Skies Fallen has begun an Indiegogo campaign in efforts to raise money for the band's forthcoming EP/album "The Many Sides of Truth."

This will be Grey Skies Fallen's first physical release since 2006's "Two Way Mirror" full-length. "The Many Sides of Truth" follows 2012's "Introspective" and 2010's "Along Came Life" which were digital-only releases available for free on the band's website.

"The Many Sides of Truth" will be released on both CD and vinyl. The vinyl version, (a first for the band) will be pressed in limited numbers, and come in a variety of colors. As a vinyl-exclusive bonus track, Grey Skies Fallen will record the Death song "Perennial Quest." Cover artwork will be crafted by Travis Smith.

Though unsigned for their entire history, (save for a brief relationship with the late Don Decker and Nightfall Records in 2000) the band is now seeking assistance from fans. Many interesting perks are offered, ranging from band merchandise, to having the band play a show in your house for you and your friends. More...

New York metal band Grey Skies Fallen has made their latest release, "Along Came Life" available as a free download on their website.

The 2010 EP now joins GSF's first 3 full length albums as free downloads, making them one of the few active bands offering their entire discography for free.

Grey Skies Fallen is also slated to enter the studio to record the new EP, "Introspective" this fall. The band is aiming for a late 2011 release. Bass guitar will once again be handled by Paul LaPlaca and Travis Smith will provide artwork for this digital-only release.

The new album is a return to the melodic death/doom sound of "Tomorrow's in Doubt." The end result will be a 20-minute opus, as well as two other songs which will make up "Introspective." GSF has stated in the past that they are now releasing EP's digitally once or twice a year instead of doing traditional full-length albums every couple of years.

Each week in Unearthing the Metal Underground, we'll be putting a few quality underground bands in the spotlight in an attempt to get the word out about them. This week I am exploring various talented bands in the New York scene.

Sanitarius

First up is Staten Island thrash metal band Sanitarius. At first listen it may sound like a some Metallica/Testament clone, but Sanitarius takes influences from melodic death metal and progressive metal, this band surely isn’t a run of the mill band. The singer Robb Quartararo’s rasp is very similar to that of James Hetfield, but he’ll add in screams ala Slayer. Musically they explore more progressive arrangements and the drummer Dave Cordero adds in interesting fills. Both guitarists are extremely talented and are very tasteful. Check out their songs on MySpace and Reverb Nation pages.

New York's Grey Skies Fallen has issued the following recording update about the band's new EP:

"The new EP is coming along nicely. All that needs to be done is bass and mixing. Writing has picked up again, and we are aiming for a full-length next time around, rather than another EP as previously planned. So we'll see how that goes! In any case, the EP will be done SOON, and released digitally only."

The new EP's track listing is as follows:

1. The Grand Scheme of Things2. By the Wayside3. Forever and a Day4. Along Came Life

New York progressive dark metal band Grey Skies Fallen has issued the following update:

"Well, the latest stretch of band turmoil seems to have passed, and we are now getting 4 songs ready to record an EP. Of course the EP will be available only digitally, as it is the year 2010, and I don't want boxes of unsold CD's in my garage anymore! Track listing: The Grand Scheme of Things Forever and a Day, Faces, Names By the Wayside. As far as when this will be released, let's just file it under the 'sort-of soon' category."

"So if we can learn a song we haven't played in two years in two rehearsals, there may actually be 3 new songs recorded."

"Digital EP - Volume 1 will be the first of what we hope will be steady releases, 3 to 4 times per year. Lofty goals? Shit, for us, getting together to jam is a lofty goal, so yes this will be interesting."

"Song titles and some details about the songs themselves are coming soon."

"We will be hitting the studio to track drums for two new songs on May 23rd. These will be the first new songs since we recorded the track "The Visionary," three years ago."

"Yes, we're really trying to get our shit together. We promise. Keep an eye open for more updates. We HOPE to have the songs posted by the end of June, and then head back into the studio a couple of months after that to record more."

New York's Grey Skies Fallen have issued the following update regarding their "new direction" regarding the way they will be releasing future albums:

"For the last 12 years, we have followed the same path over and over again - we'd write a lot of stuff, record it, release it on our own, see the album be forgotten about almost instantly, sink into the dreaded realm of 'unproductive-ness,' fighting, breaking up, opening GSF organic health food chains, getting back together, argue some more, and then someone will say. 'Hey! We should do an album!' While the music always changes on each album, the process that comes before or after, does not." More...

New York's Grey Skies Fallen have issued the following update regarding the progress of their upcoming album:

"It seems GSF is on the 4-year plan - we record an album once every 4 years. This is not by design...it just works out that way, unfortunately."

"Well, the good news is that it's about that time again."

"In a few weeks, we will be going into the studio to record two new songs. The goal is to follow that up with a full-length, but we wanted to get some new stuff up on Myspace for you to hear in the meantime." More...
